Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat broiler.

  2. Step 2

    Rub each eye of loin with oil. Rub in salt, pepper and thyme. Spread mashed garlic on loin and place it on broiler rack. Broil 3 or 4 inches from heat source for 5 minutes. Turn over meat and broil 5 minutes longer. Turn again and broil 3 to 5 minutes, until a meat thermometer registers 135 degrees in center of meat.

  3. Step 3

    Cool lamb on a serving plate. It may be prepared 2 or 3 hours in advance. Cut into slices ¼ to ½ inch thick and serve, garnished with watercress. If meat is broiled just before serving, allow 20 minutes for juices to be reabsorbed before carving.

Tip
  • Ask butcher for eyes from one full loin of lamb (the saddle), including the fillets, trimmed of all fat and tied
